80-column support for MIST or Eclaire XL?

How difficult would it be to add some type of 80-column support for one of the hardware emulators?  It could be XEP-80 or something else. And if it were XEP-80 type, it would be very nice if it did not use that awful XEP-80 tall, skinny font and it didn't overscan the screen.  Just curious if this is feasible.

Well it has 2x and 4x pixel clock mode. ie 80 or 160 col gr 0, 160x192 or 320x192 in gtia modes.

 

I asked before, but I’ll ask again:

Please could another developer help build some software for features like this. Perhaps a modification of altirra os/altirra basic that supports these modes? Or a Sparta dos driver? Or port/adapt a picture viewer?

 

I’m more into the hardware side for this hobby project.

 

I see the impressive work and enthusiasm for the Mega65 and wish there was enough interest here to work towards something like that:)
